Quantum critical nematic fluctuations and spin excitation anisotropy in iron pnictides

Chia-Chuan Liu, Elihu Abrahams, Qimiao Si

Quantum criticality in iron pnictides involves both the nematic and antiferromagnetic degrees of freedom, but the relationship between the two types of fluctuations has yet to be c…

Superconductivity at an antiferromagnetic quantum critical point: the role of energy fluctuations

Jian Kang, Rafael M. Fernandes, Elihu Abrahams +1

Motivated by recent experiments reporting superconductivity only at very low temperature in a class of heavy fermion compounds, we study the impact of energy fluctuations with smal…

Strong coupling theory of heavy fermion criticality II

Peter Wölfle, Jörg Schmalian, Elihu Abrahams

We present a theory of the scaling behavior of the thermodynamic, transport and dynamical properties of a three-dimensional metal governed by -dimensional fluctuations at a quan…

High Temperature Superconductivity in Iron Pnictides and Chalcogenides

Qimiao Si, Rong Yu, Elihu Abrahams

Superconductivity develops in metals upon the formation of a coherent macroscopic quantum state of electron pairs. Iron pnictides and chalcogenides are materials that have high sup…

Vertex functions at finite momentum: Application to antiferromagnetic quantum criticality

Peter Wölfle, Elihu Abrahams

We analyze the three-point vertex function that describes the coupling of fermionic particle-hole pairs in a metal to spin or charge fluctuations at non-zero momentum. We consider…

Spin-flip scattering of critical quasiparticles and the phase diagram of YbRh2Si2

Peter Woelfle, Elihu Abrahams

Several observed transport and thermodynamic properties of the heavy-fermion compound YbRh2Si2 in the quantum critical regime are unusual and suggest that the fermionic quasipartic…
